UK
We got a small (£1000) grant from the PRSF for 2009, if we spend it well we'd have a good track record including semi-official accounts for future funding application. ACE and PRSF funded LOSS livecode through access space too.
Huddersfield
- up north - rains alot
- could host at uni
- cheaper than London
- Railway station and near Manchester and Bradford airports
- Funding - we tend to run a zero cost game here - what kind of things would need funding?
London
- Goldsmiths a possibility
- Accommodation in London is expensive
- Funding tricky
- Reasonably large local audience
Funding
I (alexm) think it's important to keep entrance fees at a minimum or free, so as not to exclude people who don't have a funding institution. At LOSS livecode we got funding to pay for travel and accommodation of attendees, a fee for organisers and I think to cover loss making evening event.
